Well this is going to be a super special tutorial day because I did some wicked cool tutorials yesterday and I am going to show you what I have done. For my first lesson I will be showing you "how to draw an angel", step by step. I chose to do an angel that one, would look good as a tattoo, and two, also be very beautiful as well. Angels are suppose to be a symbolization of purity, love, and they are also linked to many religions as well. In fact the Christian, Islam, and Judaism faith all believe that angels are messengers of God. In the book of Revelations there are seven angels that blow on seven horns to deliver seven different wraiths from God as a sign of the end of the word. There are some that also believe that angels are warriors of God and they are sometimes sent down to earth to protect and guard individuals. These are called guardian angels. As for me, I think that angels are sent from God and I also believe that they serve many different purposes. Do I think that angels are sent to watch over us? Yes I do. I believe that angels are there to guide us through our troubled times when we are most in need. When we prey and ask God for guidance, he sends down one of his beloved angels to help people through trying times. There are folks that have strong beliefs that the guardian angels that watch over them, are loved ones that have passed on and they now spend their days as spirits to constantly protect and watch over you until it is our time to pass. Either way I think that angels are beautiful and they will always possess a purity as a reflection from God. Now there are also children that are portrayed as angels as well and they are called cherubs. These are fallen children that have passed on and they now sit along side of God in the Kingdom of Heaven. Angels are so spectacular, they are often used as tattoos with both men and woman. Men love their angels to be very voluptuous and woman like their angels to look very pure. So in order to make both parties happy I sketched out and colored an angel that is both very womanly and pure. I will show you how easy it is to draw a sexy angel step by step. I absolutely love the way my drawing came out in color and in sketch. I gave her blonde hair and blue eyes so that she reflects a sense of purity along with beauty. I wanted her to have a very pretty face, so I used a reference of actress Megan Fox (the girl from Transformers) because I think she is wicked pretty. So knock your self out with this awesome online drawing lesson on how to draw an angel. I know you will be totally mesmerized by her beauty.

How to Draw an Angel
